Question

Remember the points even if the app is shut

Hello,

My program contains 3 modules with many exercises.

I want to allow the student to break the work.

So he makes for example 20 exersices a and then shuts the program.

So he gains 20 points.

Is it possible when he opens it again, that program will remember he gained 20 points

and will count not from zero but from 20?

I´m publishing in HTML5.

(will I need javascript?)

Thank you for yout time and answer.

    This all depends on whether you are using an LMS.  Captivate will send and retrieve all variables (such as quiz results) to the LMS if you are using SCORM.

    Hello, I see. It would be difficult for me to explain...

    I create program in Adobe Captivate but even for students who will work at home but they don´t have internet. So first I tried to publish it as executable, but it was very limited. So I started to export it in HTML5 but in AICC format, because it worked fine. When I published it in SCORM, after opening the files in web browser (Mozilla) there was written: Error. Unable to acquire LMS API.

    So the easiest way was to publish in AICC...

    The SCORM error message about not being able to acquire the LMS API was only because you had your module configured to report scoring to an LMS but had opened it from your local drive.  SCORM content needs to be served from a SCORM-compliant LMS.  When you try to open the same module from a local hard drive it will look for an LMS to communicate with, but won't find any, and that is why you see the 'error' message.  There's really nothing wrong with the content.  It's just not being launched from an LMS, that's all.
